Extreme Engineering Solutions, Inc. (X-ES) Intel® Core™ Ultra (Series 3) Processor-Based 6U VME Module with 64 GB of LPDDR5 and Microchip PolarFire™ SoC FPGA XCalibur5330

The XCalibur5330 is a secure, high-performance 6U VME single board computer based on the Intel® Core™ Ultra processor (Series 3) (formerly Panther Lake). Ideal for ruggedized systems requiring high-bandwidth processing and low power consumption, the XCalibur5330 delivers superior performance and efficiency for today’s network information processing and high performance embedded computing applications. The XCalibur5330 integrates SecureCOTS™ technology with a Microchip PolarFire™ System-on-Chip (SoC) FPGA for hosting custom functions to protect data from being modified or observed and provides an ideal solution when stringent security capabilities are required. The XCalibur5330 supports up to 64 GB of LPDDR5 SDRAM with in-band ECC in eight channels and up to 512 GB of onboard NVMe storage. The XCalibur5330 also provides fast and efficient I/O, including 10/100/1000BASE-T Ethernet, USB 2.0, PCI, DisplayPort++, and RS-232 or RS-422/485 serial ports through the backplane connectors. An optional M.2 site is also available. Wind River VxWorks, X-ES Enterprise Linux (XEL), and Linux Yocto Board Support Packages (BSPs) are available.
